Kitchen Inspiration

I am so excited to start working on the kitchen. It is the heart of the home and a place you spend a lot of time in so to have it pretty and functional is important. I have some things very clear in my mind about how I want to change the kitchen but others that are not settled.

I know I want the wall to be removed, where the current oven is located. This will require a structural beam to be installed since this is one out of two load bearing wall. I know I want the oven to be relocated around where the dishwasher currently is and I want the sink to stay the same. I want the dishwasher to be on the left of the sink and I really hope I can fit in an island that can sit 3 table height stools.
I am unsure about that window. I want to keep it to allow more natural light in but it is quite large and takes up a lot of potential countertop space, which is one thing I want more of. I am unsure if I should get rid of the window all together or have a the countertop sized window? I also don't love the window because the neighbors can see into our home from there adjacent window. So currently the blind are almost fully shut. Would love some feedback or ideas if anyone has any

Below I will insert pictures off my Pintrest board (which I use as a vision board) for each room. If I know the source I will embed them in the picture, but I have mainly seen these off Pintrest and unsure of original source.

I want a wood island with Caesarstone’s Statuario Maximus quartz counter top. I want white upper and lower cabinets everything else. I would love to have another oven. The oven I posted above has a microwave built in above which I think is a nice idea to clear off counter space. I would also love to have a rang hood cover. The flooring will be the current vinyl we installed upstairs. I would very much like to have a large pull out drawer pantry. The pantry cupboard that is currently in our kitchen is quite small, and with just us two it stays fairly full.

About Us

Before I divulge into our home buying process I thought I would give you a quick blurb about us and our background. Incase you did not know. Which most of you do.... I work as an administrative assistant in health care. This job is great for my need to want to help others and allows me to be super OCD, organized, and at times bossy, however lacks creativity. I remember always loving interior design. As a child, like 8 years old or something one of my favorite TV channels were HGTV. I loved watching TLC's Trading Spaces, House to Home, and Debbie Travis' Facelift. I remember writing to interior design and host House to Home telling her how much I loved her show and how I wanted to be an interior designer just like her. Which is still true. I feel like I am a very practical/logistical person. If being and interior designer was a guaranteed good earning job I would be all over that. Along with being terrible at math is a bit of a set back as you need the highest high scho

Second Level Hallway Finishes

Before I share the master bathroom reveal (coming Friday) I thought I would continue to share the finishes that we used. Today I am sharing the second floor hallway which is much shorter than the others since there is not too much to share. Currently we have not switched out the rest of the doors on the second level which does look quite odd, but that will be done in time. I was in no rush to switch out the door as the existing doors were completely functional. By doing this we saved some dollars at the present time since we were at the end of the project and didn't want to keep spending. Paint The walls are Benjamin Moore Gray Owl (OC-52)  50% lightened while the trim is Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace (OC-65) . Flooring The floor that is now throughout the second level and will continue down to the main is a luxury vinyl. I was told about this kind of floor from my sister-in-law, her parents had this type of flooring in their home. I researched the product and like the fact
